I want to make an item called "nether candy" that, when eaten, takes you to the nether as if you had gone through a nether portal. I also want it to bring you back to the overworld 10 minutes after you ate it. Is this possible?
Depends on how you want it to work.
If you dont care where the player ends up on either side then just use the switch dimension block. On player finished using item, if dimension player is in is not the nether, switch dimension to nether.
Then either use wait 12000 ticks and switch dimension to overworld if dimension player is in is not overworld.
Otherwise you could save the x y z of the player when they leave the overworld so they return to the same place they left. You can either do that through a string variable or 3 number variables.
For the nether side if you dont want the player to spawn in a wall or in lava or fall to their death. Then you can make a small structure to spawn when the player enters. Like a 1x3x1 block of netherrack and air.
Theres also probably another longer way to make the player teleport to the nearest solid block when switching dimensions.
Thanks for your reply. I just figured out how to use the "swap dimensions block" and made it so that when it swapped you to the nether it gave you a custom status effect that takes you back to the overworld when it expires, but it kept putting me into solid blocks and such so i might use the structure idea.
